ASX Announcement Presentation - Progressing Towards Production (China Update) Emerging Australian tungsten developer, Tungsten Mining NL (ASX: TGN) (“Tungsten Mining” or “the Company”) is pleased to attach its updated Company Presentation titled “Progressing Towards Production”. We are also pleased to be able to advise that a Chinese language translation has been made available on the Company’s website. In support of our development plans for the Mt Mulgine Tungsten Project, we have also made available a Chinese language version of key elements of the Company’s website. This can be accessed at www.tungstenmining.com/zh/home-2/ with the ability to switch between English and Chinese language content. The Peoples Republic of China is the largest producer of tungsten, accounting for approximately 80% of the world’s total output, and is also the world’s largest consumer of the metal. As we advance our development activities at Mt Mulgine, our ability to communicate our progress to the wider industry in China is becoming increasingly important. Tungsten Mining’s senior management will be meeting with industry representatives in China in late October and early November to engage with specialist metallurgical laboratories/research facilities and potential off-take partners. -ENDS- 13 October 2016 For further information: For Broker and Media Enquiries: Craig Ferrier Andrew Rowell / Matt Birney Chief Executive Officer Cannings Purple Ph: +61 8 9486 8492 Ph: +61 400 466 226 / +61 419 217 090 E: [email protected] E: [email protected] / [email protected] Tungsten Mining NL 97 Outram Street PO Box 517 T +61 8 9486 8492 E [email protected] ABN 67 152 084 403 West Perth WA 6005 West Perth WA 6872 F +61 8 9322 2370 W www.tungstenmining.com About Tungsten Mining Emerging Australian tungsten developer, Tungsten Mining NL is an Australian based resources company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange. The Company’s prime focus is the exploration and development of tungsten projects in Australia. Tungsten (chemical symbol W), occurs naturally on Earth, not in its pure form but as a constituent of other minerals, only two of which support commercial extraction and processing - wolframite ((Fe, Mn)WO ) and 4 scheelite (CaWO ). 4 Tungsten has the highest melting point of all elements except carbon – around 3400°C giving it excellent high temperature mechanical properties and the lowest expansion coefficient of all metals. Tungsten is a metal of considerable strategic importance, essential to modern industrial development (across aerospace and defence, electronics, automotive, extractive and construction sectors) with uses in cemented carbides, high-speed steels and super alloys, tungsten mill products and chemicals. Tungsten Mining has three advanced tungsten projects in Australia: the Mt Mulgine Project in the Murchison region, the Big Hill Project in the Pilbara region and the Kilba Project in the Ashburton region of Western Australia. The Mt Mulgine, Big Hill and Kilba Projects, together contain Mineral Resources reported at a 0.10%WO3 cut-off grade comprising Indicated Resources of 15.4Mt at 0.20% WO3 and 26ppm Mo and Inferred Resources of 73.2Mt at 0.17% WO3 and 220ppm Mo, totalling 88.6Mt at 0.18% WO3 and 186ppm Mo. This represents more than 15.5 million MTU (metric tonne units) of WO3 and 16,480 tonnes of contained Molybdenum. Tungsten Mining is currently identifying opportunities for near term tungsten production, particularly from the Mulgine Hill and Mulgine Trench deposits within the Mt Mulgine Project.
